Catarina White Wine
Wine produced with the two main Portuguese white varieties from PeniÌnsula de SetuÌbal, FernaÌo Pires and Arinto, and the worldâs most famous white grape variety, Chardonnay, from north-facing vineyards planted in clay limestone soils on the AzeitaÌo slopes. In 2020, the year was hot and dry, resulting in a regular grape ripening. FernaÌo Pires, a very early breed, was harvested in the last days of August and soon followed by Chardonnay. The Arinto, later variety, had its optimum maturation already in September in the 2nd fortnight. Both the FernaÌo Pires and the Arinto must were fermented separately in stainless steel tanks; Part of the Chardonnay was fermented in new French oak barrels, having aged in the same barrels 4 months with âbatonnageâ.Â
